This $68 Elemis Bridal Kit contains FOUR bestselling skincare essentials worth over $80 - and it's selling out fast
Wedding season is here, and what better way to treat your bridesmaids before the big day than with Elemis's bestselling products? The brand's Bride Squad Kit packs the Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm, Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads, Pro-Collagen Hydra-Gel Eye Mask, Superfood Midnight Facial, and a white travel bag to hold it all. Plus, the full set would generally cost you $85, but Elemis is selling it for just $68 — a steal given the amount of products you get in this kit. One of my favorites from this set is the Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm. The luxurious oil easily dissolves my makeup and leaves my skin feeling glowy and hydrated after a long day out. I never leave the house without carrying the balm in my handbag. The gel eye masks are great, too, and you'll get one pack with this kit. They're clinically proven to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and deliver tighter, less puffy under-eye skin in just 20 minutes, according to the brand. You can combine this with the Superfood Midnight Facial, which is an overnight prebiotic cream to help enrich and replenish dry skin, giving it that moisture kick it so direly needs. Elemis also breaks down each step on their website in case you want to use all four products together and get a little spa night in with your friends or bridesmaids. All four products also have tons of skin-friendly ingredients, including hyaluronic acid for hydration, Camu Camu which is rich in Vitamin C, and Elemis' Patented Tri-Enzyme Technology, which breaks down dead cells and helps replenish your skin without breaking down the moisture barrier. All in all, this well-priced kit is the gift set you need, and at just $68, it really is a steal. Use it for your bridesmaids' care package this wedding season, or just buy a couple for your next adult sleepover with your girlfriends. Stocks are limited, so add to cart now before The Bride Squad Kit sells out!

Beauty influencer shows extensive two-hour makeover for family wedding – but her ‘accident' steals all the attention
WEDDING FAIL She admitted it looked as though a "four-year-old" had done it A INFLUENCER has left people stunned by her epic beauty fail ahead of a family wedding. Chloe took to TikTok to share a video of herself prepping for her cousin's nuptials, as she detailed the products she was using for her dewy but glam make-up look. 2 2 "I've got two hours to get ready," she said, as she got started on her transformation. "That's like hair, make-up, like everything." As she had "quite a long day" ahead of her, she needed to make the make-up last. And being recently engaged herself, Chloe said it's made her appreciate weddings even more. "I just love weddings, especially even more now while I'm getting married myself because I like to like look at all the inspo, like the dress and everything. "It's just so exciting!" While people were quick to thank Chloe for sharing her recommended beauty products, others were more than a little distracted by her hands. Chloe even addressed it in the video, as she said: "Some of you might have by now noticed, there was definitely an accident with my hands. "It's giving a four-year-old has done my fake tan!" Despite her remarks, Chloe was almost immediately targeted in the comments section about the patchy, orange tan on her hands. I get stopped in the street and asked which fake tan I use - a Superdrug fave's my go-to & a £3 buy to apply it is key "Please tell me that's going to wash off your hands??!!" one person pleaded. With Chloe replying: "I tried, wouldn't come off!" Some then offered their top tips to get the tan off, with toothpaste, hairspray, washing up liquid and lemon juice all among the recommendations - as well as "Rose and caramel tan remover". "Aldi's fake tan remover is great for that," someone else added. "With a brush softens it!" "No hate but your hands look so bad," another said. Fake Tan Lovers Guide to Applying it Streak-Free Here's Fabulous ultimate guide to a flawless, streak-free fake tan that will leave you looking like you've just stepped off the beach... Preparation is Key A streak-free tan starts with proper skin prep. Exfoliate your skin thoroughly 24 hours before application. Focus on rough areas like elbows, knees and ankles to ensure an even canvas. Opt for an exfoliator with natural ingredients to avoid irritation. Hydration Station Moisturise your entire body right after exfoliating, but pay extra attention to dry patches. On the day of tanning, only apply a light, oil-free moisturiser to these areas a few hours before you plan to tan. This prevents the tan from clinging to dry spots and developing unevenly. Formulate, Don't Hate Selecting the right fake tan product can make all the difference. Mousse formulas are easiest to apply and blend. Tanning drops can be added to your regular face moisturiser to match your face with your body. Application O'Clock Using a tanning mitt is non-negotiable for an even application. Dispense a small amount of product onto the mitt and apply in long, sweeping motions. Start from your ankles and work your way up to avoid creases. Apply sparingly on joints and use a fluffy make-up brush for your hands and feet. Post-Tan Care Once you've applied your tan, allow it to dry completely before dressing. Loose, dark clothing is best to avoid transferring colour. Avoid water and sweat for at least six to eight hours while the tan develops. After your first rinse, pat your skin dry gently and moisturise daily to prolong your tan. With someone else adding: "I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that!" "Chloe! The hands!" another gasped. To which she replied "YOLO". "I can't believe the people on this app. ever heard of 'if you ain't got anything nice to say, don't say anything at all' ???" someone else said. "Wash your hands with a gritty body scrub or even a tiny bit of soap powder, it gets the fake tan off," another recommended.

I've been the 60 weddings in the past decade – here's my ultimate survival guide: SOPHIA MONEY-COUTTS
Ding dong, here we go again. Wedding season's back. Jeff Bezos is getting hitched this month in Venice; Selena Gomez is rumoured to be doing it in , and will go full meringue when she walks down the aisle towards ? What to wear! Hat or no hat? And do you really have to contribute to the happy couple's honeymoon fund? Over the past decade or so, I've been to upwards of 60 weddings. Splendid, on the one hand. Church bells, big white dress, glass of fizz – don't mind if I do. At a conservative estimate, I've eaten hundreds of salmon canapés and sat through hours of speeches (sitting if I was lucky; standing if I wasn't).
